A: The $5,000 rule helps you decide between repairing and replacing your AC. Multiply your system’s age by the repair cost, and if the result exceeds $5,000, replacement usually makes more sense. In Gulfport, where most homes were built in the 1920s to 1960s, many AC systems are 20-40 years old. A $400 repair on a 15-year-old unit hits $6,000, making a new system the smarter investment. Our Gulfport technicians will run the numbers with you on the spot and give you an honest recommendation.

Concrete block homes hold heat well into the evening, making your system work harder. A refrigerant recharge typically costs $279 to $500 depending on your system type. probably runs on R-22 refrigerant which is no longer manufactured and very expensive to recharge.

A: In Florida, you should get your AC serviced twice a year, once before summer and once before winter. Gulfport homeowners powered by Duke Energy can see real savings on their electric bill with regular maintenance. With systems running 8 to 10 months a year in this climate, a tune-up catches worn capacitors or low refrigerant before they become expensive breakdowns. Our Therapy Maintenance Plan includes two visits per year, priority scheduling, and member discounts.

A: Usually not. Most AC systems in Florida last 10 to 15 years because of the heavy use. A 15-year-old unit is at end of life, uses more electricity, and probably runs on R-22 refrigerant which is no longer manufactured and very expensive to recharge. In Gulfport, where mixed (wood frame bungalows, concrete block) homes hold heat, an inefficient system hits your Duke Energy bill especially hard. If the repair is under $300 and buys you time, that can make sense. But for anything bigger, a new high-efficiency system will save you $50 to $100 a month on electric and comes with a 10-year warranty.

A: A tripping breaker usually means your system is drawing too much power.
